How we train and perform
- We usually have rehearsals on Tuesdays (7 pm) and Saturdays (11:30 am), which last about 2.5 hours.
- We are very thankful to St. Andrew’s Anglican Church (moscowanglican.org) and particularly to its recent Chaplain, Reverend Canon Malcolm Rogers for the opportunity to conduct rehearsals and concerts in their beautiful building with fabulous acoustics.
- We usually have a few Christmas concerts in the middle of December and a few spring concerts in May and sometimes concerts at other times of the year.
- The rehearsal seasons start in early September and mid-January.
On June 22nd, 2021 our choir participated in the memorial concert at “Zaryadye park” in Moscow, which started on 4 am, exactly same time as WWII started for Soviet Union 80 years ago, in 1941.
